Using Clockwork turns my phone into an Iphone 4?

Jking, does it bring anything to the plate that anons does not? and if so does anyone know if there is a way to manually flash the recovery image from them onto the phone, because if I use it, it just make my phone sit at the skate board screen?
[Droid Eris Android Development] t2noob:
It does have some pretty nice features, but it could cause a brick in the future.

I used it about a month before i had any problems with it.

I wasn't able to flash or restore any nands i had made, it would just spit out error after error. I even tried flashing the ROOT rom and that didn't help either. then when i tried rebooting it just never turned on again and I had to get the phone replaced. On other phones it works great, but on the eris its no good.

I would suggest stay with RA unless you're willing to risk your phone and money.
[Droid Eris Android Development] jvward:
Cool,

I was just interested in the update rom feature for the Eris, but oh well if its that dangerous >.<

Thanks!
[Droid Eris Android Development] jvward:
Quick question T2noob, I just noticed your post on the blog for clockwork recovery where you ever able to get past this error.

"The recovery for for the eris 1.8.1.1 isn't working, I tried to reboot into recovery but it never boots, it just stays at the android skateboard screen. If you need anything, testing, info on the phone, ect you can email me at XXXXXXXX"
[Droid Eris Android Development] t2noob:
Yea You need to flash RA then Clockwork thats how he had me fix it, but like i said don't use Clockwork recovery just take a look at this thread im not the only one

[Droid Eris Android Development] OLDsJUNKIE:
I find it really odd that so many people have trouble with clockwork. Been using it to flash ROMs for months with no issues. Hopefully don't have any in the future!
[Droid Eris Android Development] kzoodroid:
i've used clockwork mod for 3 weeks now without any problems. also have rom manager installed, same author. i absolutely love both apps. i came from a v3 leak and couldn't get amon recovery to load on my phone, this worked like a charm first time. also i read in the forums that amons recovery is no longer supported by the author unlike clockwork mod which the author updates frequently.
[Droid Eris Android Development] kzoodroid:
that thread you linked too only has you and the op posting in it. in fact i read that thread before i installed it and thought to myself that 2 people aren't enough to convince me it causes any more problems than amon's. personally i only used clockwork because that is what i could get loaded on my phone and have loved it since. also its been updated like 4 times since May when that link was started. so if it bricks my phone so what it just a phone and everythings backed up in triplicate anyways. be a nice excuse to get me a new toy.

I also believe the op's problem is that he used rom manager to flash amons recovery. now its my understanding that doing that removes clockwork mod recovery and replaces it with amon's. so he actually had a problem with amon's recovery and not clockwork mod recovery. i think the problems occur when people use rom manager to falsh a different recovery instead of clockwork mod which it is made to work with. just my ramblings here.
[Droid Eris Android Development] t2noob:
take it as a grain of salt, if you come into the irc there are devs there that had this happen to them and can tell you what exactly happens. And I used ClockWork for about a month before i got the brick so...do as you like with this information.
[Droid Eris Android Development] kzoodroid:
well there are a lot of people running clockwork mod without problems. i went to the cyanogen forums looking for who was running cm6, like the op, and there are just as many people using clockwork as amon's. and there were a few reports of nandroid recovery failures using amon's in cm6 as the reason why they switched to clockwork.
[Droid Eris Android Development] t2noob:
I heard that clock work is a great recovery on other devices, but on the eris it's not good the irc devs also worked with the guy who makes the recovery email him if you like he will tell you he had gotten complaints about on the eris. And there isn't an official cm6 for the eris so the people you talked to were running it for other devices. Like I said a grain of salt.
[Droid Eris Android Development] jvward:
Well I would like to test it out but the recovery image it drops over anons does not seem to work anyone have any moderately detailed instructions on to how to get it to work?
[Droid Eris Android Development] kzoodroid:
I read it somewhere but now can't find the post. It wasn't on this site but another, maybe cyanogenmod site. It went something like use rom manager to flash clockwork, then flash amon then flash clockwork again and it should work.

Another site said to not use flash in rom manager but to do it through fastboot. Not sure how to do that through android-sdk on your computer but I'm sure someone esle will.

rom mangaer should work with amons recovery too you don't have to have clockwork installed. at least that is my understanding as i haven't tried using amons. also the update function in rom manager only works if the rom installed on you phone has ota updates turned on which most don't. also none of the droid eris rom's are available for download through rom manager either.

got this off of android forums for using fast boot to reinstall amon's not sure how usefull it would be to you.

http://androidforums.com/all-things-root-eris/98454-clock-work-mod-how-get-amon_ra-back.html

Re-installing Amon_RA is easy enough, so long as you still have the 1.49 S-OFF bootloader; that's a single command:

Code:

fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-eris-v1.6.2.imgPrerequisites:

1) Get fastboot from HTC (look midway down this page)

2) Get Amon_RA's (v1.6.2) recovery boot - md5sum e3932991f097993602af3c7a4b61a4f8

3) Install drivers on your Windoze PC

4) Put recovery-RA-eris-v1.6.2.img in the same folder with fastboot, or figure out what PATH does

5) Put phone into Fastboot mode (Power down, then Vol-down+End/Power; wait; then Send)

6) Verify you are communicating with the phone via USB by running the command "fastboot devices" - you should see your phone DeviceID printed out.

7) Run the command in the code box above ("fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-eris-v1.6.2.img")
[Droid Eris Android Development] kzoodroid:
yes the cyanogenmod site has no eris forum so i was in the hero forum, and i believe cm6 for the eris is the hero rom if i'm not mistaken. too lazy to go look it up. clockwork appears to work just fine on the hero so i see no reason it shouldn't on the eris as they are almost identical.

i did email koush to confirm. it is now on version 2.5.0.1 and i don't know what version you were using in may when it bricked your phone but like i said earlier he's done at least 4 upgrades since then which may have fixed the issue you had.

i also really had no choice but to install clockwork as i was having too many problems getting amon installed. did everything jcase and captainkrtek (tereg) said but gave up after trying for 3 hours. i believe it was jcase who then recommended i use clockwork. and all i had to do was download rom manager from the market and then flashed clockwork through it. neither of them had anything bad to say about it.
[Droid Eris Android Development] CPCookieMan:
I had no problems whatsoever getting Amon installed, though the nandroid feature has gone weird a couple of times. As long as you backup with nandroid from the computer you're perfectly fine. Restoring is not broken. For those of you that do not know this you go into recovery, type adb shell, then you type nandroid-mobile.sh -b. It's -r if you want to restore. When you run the command you have the option to type a name but if you don't want one just hit enter. For restore it works like a search, but you have to narrow it down. If you named the backup type the name, otherwise try the last four digits.
[Droid Eris Android Development] t2noob:
mmm Hero!= Eris....

I mean why do you think everything has to be ported in order for it to work on the eris?

If ClockWork is fixed thats awesome, Im still not willing to risk my phone, Im not made of money to replace it, I rather stick with what i know works.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sany:
Can somebody suggest where I can get the official ROMs especially european ROM since I see lots of asian firmwares being upgraded to European firmwares in many threads in this forum.

Also I want to how I can change the firmware to these european FW without rooting. Somebody please suggest step by step directions please.

I am having a singtel fw and need to remove the singtel animation at startup and my ver number is JE9 as I see most of the people are using JF versions which seem to be more recent than what I have.

And after changing it I should still be able to upgrade to froyo officially when it releases.

thanks

Sany,

Please use the search button before you post!

[Galaxy S I9000 General] dakine:
There are no OFFICIAL EU updates out yet so how is he supposed to get one?!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sany:
then what are these that are posted here, are they not official?

http://samsung-firmware.webs.com/
[Galaxy S I9000 General] appelflap:
Not really.

This is written on the home page:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lenrek:
The site is not an official Samsung's sponsor site, but the ROMs are official. Though, from what I have learned, not all the official ROM can be found there.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dakine:
The only official EU rom at this time is JF3 and they just posted that today. Official means released by samsung. No one has clarified who/what samsung-firmwares.com really is but those newer roms are definitely not official. This doesn't mean they aren't great especially since now we can flash back to the stock firmware if we need it for warranty purposes.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mickeko:
They are not officially available to the public so there's nothing official about them. If I assume that they are the same files used when flashing the phones that are distributed around the world I guess they could be called "shipping" ROMs, but that doesn't make them more official than the updates.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lenrek:
It is "official" enough for me. When used the ROM found at their site, I manage to restore SGS to default and initial state. It even comes with all the customisations that are specially designed for the local operator I subscribed to. I don't really want to know nor do I care how the owner of the site manage to access these ROM files.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dakine:
They just posted this on twitter:

Looks like they read the forum :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] appelflap:
Well that's great. Maybe we can do some requests. Please upload Android 2.2 . Thank you :D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] onbacardi:
+ 100 for that lol :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lenrek:
We need wait from Samsung though...

At least this clear out some misinformation regarding the ROM files at their site.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sany:
I am getting more confused now:

What are 'stock ROMs' then and what are those that are called 'official ROMs' if samsung has not released them or posted them and where are these sourced from.

My fw is JE9 asian, although I can see that it looks old when I see JF4 already being talked about, dont know how this supercedes my JE9 when samsung has not released an update? And I dont want to risk flashing those different so called official ROMs if samsung tomorrow devices some way of tracking that these are ROM that did not ship with the device and not allow me to upgrade to froyo - so i think i will rather wait.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hitman3x:
this is my 3rd full charge on a 2600mah seidio extended battery

with WIFI on and running 100% it lasted around 12 hours

with wifi off and running 49% (i guess all the gmail syncs), 98% on standby, didnt do nothing with it

it is at 2% now and has the uptime of 16:20...itll probably last another hour or so

i have super d 1.11 ram hack with swap on, apps2sd

i read on the battery reviews that their phones would last 24 hours easy with full use..

ive been leaving it 98% on standby with occassional checking on the battery and its surviving for a fraction of that, blue tooth off, brightness down, wifi off, gps off, on edge..

it will die within the next hour or so

cell standby: 49%

phone idle 46%

display 3%

android system 2%

16 hours and 20 minutes, with 2% left

is something wrong or what, i expected this battery to last at least 2 days when its on standby / idle over 90%

whats going on? is it the ram hack or the swap

the phone DOES shut off after an hour or two after it hits 2%, it does not keep running, so i cant see it being a calibration issue

but i expected from the reviews that it would last 2-3 days on standby at least

any opinions? or is what im seeing normal
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamflux:
So.... my car got stolen (from a underground "secure" parking spot too), and my Nexus one was in the car. And no we didn't find the guys who took it, but we did recover the car relatively in tack.

now the question. I loved my rooted Nexus One. Had lots of fun with it and it did everything I needed. But it was damn expensive as I bought it for AT&T.

The Samsung Captivate came out for AT&T.

Do I fork over the funds for a nexus one? $500 +

Or do I pick up a samsung Captivate ~$200...

or wait for some other option ....

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noiz7:
If you do a ton of things that can only be done when rooted, a N1 will probably be your best option. I'd also wait a bit and see some of the reviews that the Captivate gets from different news sites.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GldRush98:
Shouldn't your insurance cover that?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yayramen:
No matter what phone you get, it will never compare to the quick experience of the N1.

Sure, you might get a phone with a better screen, slightly better proc, or whatever, but

no matter what phone you buy, I don't think there will be anything QUITE like owning the

officially sanctioned 'google phone'. I think you'll miss always having the latest version of

android running at all times.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamflux:
@GldRush98 no.... AT&T doesn't offer insurance on the google phone, and the policy of the car didn't cover personal items in the car....=/

On top of everything else, I'd seriously think about purchasing WaveSecure for your next phone whether it be an Android, iPhone, or Blackberry. Well worth it for the ability to do realtime tracking of where your phone is. Hell, you could have probably found the guys still in your stolen car if you had it. Just me .02
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamflux:
@chesh420 I do have wave secure... that was part of the reason why I was able to find the car...was able to track it to the last known area before the battery died. Found our car a few blocks away. but alas the phone was long gone, either they got rid of it some how, or haven't turned it back on yet, or my nexus might have recieved some other horrible fate.

but yes.... A great endorsement to WaveSecure. .

i'd get a g1 and wait for the next great thing from htc and google. i've said it in a few different threads now, the 3g issues and no physical keyboard are the reasons.

given, i won't buy anything on contract.

when you used wavesecure to find your car, can you remote wipe before locating, and the app still gives you a location ? did you try instamapper and decide on wavesecure instead ?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] player911:
I'm recommending the Captivate to my friends and family... but to a guy like you and me... I can't recommend the Samsung until a little more testing surfaces. Sure it has a little better specs but would you be happy using their crappy software forever if you are unable to root and flash custom roms?

I used to cook with Da_G back when we had Samsung Blackjacks and the Samsung stuff was pretty tight lipped compared to HTC. You'd think that company's would figure out that being able to mod phones increases sales. They should know that the bottle neck is the carriers contracts and we upgrade asap regardless.

Open the phone up, let us tinker and make it everything we can dream of, which will bring in more customers.

I know lots of the Samsungs can be flashed, which hopefully helps with unlocking the potential of the Captivate. Maybe pick you up a cheap $20 pre-paid to use until some more info comes out.

@player911 - yah.... that's the way i'm feeling.... I think that ultimately spending another $500 for an N1 for another 5-6 months seems a bit pricey for my modding happiness.

@xXJay_RXx I think Wave secure had an additional install that would notify if it was removed or something like that.... I can't seem to remember....

@ohgood - You can remote lock on wave secure with a message that pops up to whoever turns it on. It can say "return for a reward", or in my case " contact the police RE: case #". I left it on lock for a while and the sent the notification to remote wipe after we found the car and wrote off the nexus one.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidlicious:
If it were me, I would not buy it again and wait out for something else. My reason is because the N1 is a really expensive phone off contract and it just doesn't seem like a good deal as it was 6 months ago. There are and probably will be better options for the same price.

If the price were lower, I would go for it. But it doesn't seem like you can find a new one without forking over full price.

Some many be familiar here, but last year I did all 32 NFL teams as full themes. After a while they became to hard to maintain, most were updated as far as donut, most to metamorph, but I have all the files. This is my offer if anyone wants to pick them up at all, even if just your team, let me know. Figure rather then let them go to waste.

All the colors are done, so you could even use this to help you put together other teams.

An example of some of the screens:

If you view the album, there are screens for all 32 teams, widgets, boot, and icons. the widgets and some parts I believe I still have all the .9's for also, in case you wanted to redo anything.
